I rely on gathering to brush blessings in the world of beastmanship

The one chosen by Shadow Cat was a boy named Fang Keke.

Fang Keke is obese, with a slightly pot belly despite being young. He has contracted three star beasts, namely the Ice Star Shield Turtle, a dual-element star beast of water and ice, the Moon Hydrangea, a wood-element star beast, and the Mighty Snake, an earth-element star beast.

It is worth mentioning that his Ice Star Shield Turtle is already a general-level star beast with the strength of the second level of general.

Isn't this a coincidence?

The system assessed Shadow Cat's strength to be at the second level.

Then, come on! It's decided to be you!

E Xia said in a clear voice, looked at Teacher Liang, and said, "Teacher, I want to choose Fang Keke."

Teacher Liang raised her eyebrows habitually, and the expression on her face made it hard to tell whether it was approval or denial. She called out loudly: "Fang Keke, come out!"

The crowd in front made way for a boy standing at the end.

He walked forward slowly and responded, "Teacher, I'm here. I agree to fight her."

There was another round of noise around him. Although Exia's hearing ability had improved, he could only vaguely catch one or two sentences:

"He is doomed to fail!"

"So brave?"

"Newbies... When we first came in, it was..."

But why? Is it because of Fang Keke?

E Xia didn't take these words to heart and followed Teacher Liang into the room.

There was a training table in the middle of the room. Exia's opponent was so agile that it did not match his body shape. He somersaulted lightly and jumped onto the stage.

Teacher Liang took a long step and easily reached the training platform.

E Xia carefully untied the straps around the training platform, grabbed a nearby pillar in an ungraceful manner, and climbed onto the platform.

There was a burst of laughter at the back.

Teacher Liang glared at them, and the laughter finally stopped. She clapped her hands, signaling for silence, and then began to read out the rules:

"There's no such thing as best of three games here, one game decides the outcome!"

Now E Xia could hear the whispers around her. Some were questioning why she could join the school team when she was only a two-star beastmaster. Some were actually answering questions, saying that she had a darkless jellyfish on her body and had awakened her innate healing skills.

Then there was a burst of exaggerated inhalation, perhaps out of jealousy, envy or something else.

On the contrary, E Xia felt like laughing. The nervousness she had at the beginning had been thrown away as far as possible by her.

She has come to her senses now. The reason why the school urged her to move up to the third year of high school and recommended her to join the school team was probably because of her Darkless Jellyfish.

She had just looked at the information of the school team. It turned out that they were short of a doctor, so they recruited her.

Is she here specifically to serve as a team doctor?

of course not.

Teacher Liang patiently read out the rules of the duel, which were all very common, such as not being able to go out of bounds, and if the star beast landed outside the training table, it would be considered a loser.

For another example, if the Star Beast loses consciousness for five seconds, it loses the game.

E Xia knew these rules before. He had heard them for the umpteenth time, but he still memorized every word carefully in his mind.

After Teacher Liang finished reading the rules, he blew the whistle.

"Okay, the game begins!"

"Shadow! Come out!"

"Xiao Shui!"

Both parties make seals to summon at the same time.

As their calls were made, the figures of two star beasts quickly appeared in the air.

Outside the field, the red-haired siblings stood high up in the distance.

They had no intention of going closer to watch the game. With the strength they had gained from being fed by the Star Beast, they could see clearly what was happening on the training platform without having to go closer.

The younger brother spoke first. He was playing with a training card between his fingers, smiling, and looked like he didn't take E Xia seriously at all: "Sister, how long do you think she can last?"

There were a few other people standing next to the red-haired siblings.

Someone answered in a servile manner: "Boss! I think it's amazing that this newcomer can last for five minutes!"

"Oh?" The red-haired boy whom he called the boss had delicate features and looked talkative and cheerful. When he saw his subordinate answer first, he was not angry, but just uttered a puzzled syllable.

However, if you look closely, you can't tell that the expression on his face shows much agreement.

Someone keenly caught this subtle disagreement and volunteered to refute: "You must not have read the information! The newcomer Shadow Cat's special skill is Shadow Stealth, and its speed is also very fast. I think the Ice Star Shield Turtle may not be able to hit it for a while, so this game may be a bit difficult."

The red-haired sister who was surrounded by them in the middle finally spoke. She stared at the training table without blinking, and seemed to be very interested in E Xia: "I don't think so."

The red-haired brother smiled and asked cheerfully: "Sister, do you think... the Ice Star Shield Turtle's skills can effectively slow down the Shadow Cat? Or..."

He also cast his gaze towards the training table, and his voice became lighter: "...or in other words, the Ice Star Shield Turtle can directly freeze the Shadow Cat and end the game directly?"

The red-haired sister nodded slightly. Seeing that the Ice Star Shield Turtle began to spray water everywhere, but E Xia seemed to be unaware of it, she couldn't help but show a hint of displeasure.

She was always annoyed by stupid people, idiots, and the like, and her attitude towards mediocre people was not much better.

Although Exia's Darkless Jellyfish can assist them, if Exia's combat awareness is not good, it will also hold them back.

When she thought about the situation that if she went to the competition, E Xia would not be strong enough and would desperately demand to play, she couldn't help but get angry.

The air around suddenly became hot.

Behind them, the younger brothers who were busy betting on how long E Xia could last suddenly stopped and looked at the red-haired brother and sister timidly.

Others may not know, but we little brothers know it clearly.

The red-haired brother and sister were named Yan. The brother's name was Yan Ruhai, and the sister's name was Yan Chengyu. They both inherited their ancestors' talent for affinity with fire-type star beasts, and their tempers were worse than each other.

I wonder who has angered this demon king now?

Those who were tactful and those who were not all retreated silently, trying to stay away from the battlefield.

E Xia on the field knew nothing about this.

She didn't care at all about the people who thought she was bound to lose, as she focused all her attention on the battle.

E Xia also noticed the other party's continuous spraying of water.

The Shadow Cat was agile and avoided the water gun from spraying it, but the other party did not give up and kept spraying water.

Soon the field was full of water.

Exia immediately realized his intention and silently communicated with Shadow Cat in his heart: Shadow, end the battle as soon as possible!

Speed-boosting blessings are taking effect...

The Shadow Cat was faster than last time, and it approached the Ice Star Turtle silently.

Exia did not give the order to attack immediately.

Because she had a vague feeling that the other party would not let the Shadow Cat get so close. Sure enough, she noticed with her sharp eyes that the Ice Star Shield Turtle on the opposite side was standing in a large puddle.

If the Shadow Cat just rushed over like this, it would probably hit the water.

Ice Star Shield Turtle...Ice Star...Ice...

The other party kept spraying water on the Shadow Cat. Was it to freeze it? Was it to freeze the Shadow Cat into an ice cube?

E Xia probably didn't even realize that she was thinking much faster than before.

At this moment, countless thoughts suddenly appeared in her mind: Will the Shadow Cat be frozen into an ice cube? Considering the worst result, if the Shadow Cat is really frozen into an ice cube, it will be judged to have lost its fighting consciousness, and it will lose!

Don't get it wet!

At the same time, she looked up and down at the Ice Star Shield Turtle, looking for its weakness!

The Ice Star Shield Turtle has thick scales, worthy of the name "Shield Turtle".

What is its weakness?

Got it!

E Xia's eyes lit up, and he almost jumped up, shouting: "Shadow Cat!"

Eye!

Attack its eyes!

Her voice reached the shadow cat's heart.

"Shadow!" The cry of Shadow Cat sounded near the Ice Star Shield Turtle, but neither the Ice Star Shield Turtle nor Fang Keke could catch its eye.

Fang Keke kept a close eye on the Ice Star Shield Turtle, thinking that E Xia was only a freshman in high school and lacked combat experience, which was why he made the Shadow Cat make a sound before attacking.

This is not a good habit.

He smiled grimly, but at that moment his face, which was usually smiling, was expressionless.

It's time to give the newcomers a warning!
